After the huge successes of Old Herbaceous and Fagin?, Hampshire based theatre company Kick In The Head are back with a rip roaring barrel of fun, Three Men in a Boat, with Giles Shenton (Old Herbaceous himself!) playing the part of Jerome K Jerome. 

The play is based on the hilarious book by Jerome K. Jerome which, since its first publication in 1889, has never been out of print and is regarded as one of the funniest books ever written.

In the play, Jerome recounts the hilarious story of his boating holiday along the magnificent River Thames with his two companions and Montmorency the dog. Giles Shenton expertly takes the helm and pilots you through the ridiculous tale of men behaving badly while messing about in boats!

Tickets are selling fast for this comic romp along the Thames with performances expected to sell out – so don’t leave it long before booking your seats!

Three Men in a Boat comes to The Manor Pavilion Theatre, Sidmouth on Tuesday 5 March and at The Cygnet Theatre, Exeter on Wednesday 6 March 2019, both at 7.30pm. Tickets available from theatre websites or from www.kickinthehead.co.uk
